Lend Your Constitution a Hand.

Constitutions are much alike, and in nine
tenths of US the same causes produce the same
effects. Vertigo, dizziness, or pain of any
kird, excepting that of an injury, can come
only when there is in our bodies some inn
purity of the blood which we have not suiii.
cient vitality to throw off without help, There.
fore, the proper thing to do is to get immedi-
ately the necessary help. No aid is so effective
as Brandreth's Pills. When you feel these ills
coming on take from three to ten ofthese pills,
according to your weight, and be relieved at
once. Never put off the feeling by thinking
you will soon be over it. Take the pills and
do not rack the constitution.

Needs Reforming Badly.

A year ago, or more, man who
had been convicted of selling intoxi-
cants contrary to law was appointed
liquor agent for Rutland by the COM
missioner who himself was put into
Office by the rum element. We be
lieve the selectmen refused to furnish
the agent referred to with the neces-
sary supplies. At the last session of
the county court in Rutland, States
Attorney Platt attempted, according
to the Peoples Journal, to defeat
the law in several gambling and liqz
uor cases, but was promptly sat down
upon by Judge Rowell who informed
him that the court controlled those
cases and proceeded to intiict the
penalties. When a states attorney
comes to the help of parties indicted
and convicted by jury, and endeav-
ors upon technical grounds to save
such offenders from punishment it
has very suspicious look. Platt
should resign at once or be kicked
out of office. Yet after all how much
worse was his conduct than that of
Chief Justice Royce who took pres
ents in the form of free railroad pass
es from railroads which had cases in
litigation before him? If Vermont
judges accept gratuities from corpo-
rations that have lawsuits pending,
can states attorneys be blamed if
they follow the example and take
or do a little work in be-
half of their friends who happen
to be caught in the meshes of the
law ST. Adams Sentry.

injustice of extortionate interest taken

The rich Cypress the poor; corporate
enterprise is prosecuted with the hard
earnings Of the poor mechanic and
the few hundreds that the thrifty
farmer and his wife, toiling early and
late, lay by for rainy day or sick
ness. Then by misrepresentation, it
is taken by monopolists, who stand
high in society, build churches and
public libraries, that the poor who
have virtually been robbed may not
complain, In Gods sight is mission

Ills all myth that Autumn grieyes,
For watch the rain amid the leaves;
With sllvery fingers dlmly seen
II makes each leaf tambourme;
And swings ami leaps with clim mirth
To kiss the brow of mother earth;
Or laughing mid the trembling grass,
1t mods greeting as you pass,
Oh! hear the rain amid the leaves
It's all myth that autumn gricyes,
IT'S all myth that autumn griycs,
For list the wind among the sheaves,
Far sweeter than the breath of May
Or stored scents of old Cathay.
1t BLENDS the perfumes rare and good
OF spicy pine and hickory woods
And with voice as gay as rhyme
1t pirates of riiled mint and thyme.
Oh! scent the wind among the sheaves-
IT'S all a myth that autumn grives.
IT'S all myth that autumn gieves--
Behold the wondrous web she weaves,
BY viewless hands her web Is spun
OF evenings vapors shyly won.
Across the field from side t. side
A myriad unseen shuttles glide
Throughout the night till on the height
Aurora leads the laggard light
Behold the wondrous web she wcavcs--
'Tis all myth that autumn griyes!
